was introduced to avoid lengthy and controversial admission
processes. The

Form - Opportunities

Creates Focus and brings seriousness to the process.
As candidate
has limited options to select he will take a realistic
view of his or her CET score and chance of getting
into a particular college.

One can have permutations and combinations of college/s & branch/es
though limited in number.

Compulsory options make sure that next round has
less students vying for seats available.

It limits the number of undecided candidates.

It ensures and promotes positive decision making
reducing the duration of admission process.

Option
Form – Risks

- Candidates have to think twice before
entering compulsory options.

-
Candidates also have to think clearly for non-compulsory
options.

-
A bird in a bush is like twice in a hand – one
has to apply proper judgment to take or forfeit seat
allotted from non-compulsory options.

One has to make sure that first option is always
better than the second. Many times candidates fill
the option
form casually and repent later.

-
Filling option forms for later rounds when number
of options increase may become tiresome.
